Amp Fiddler - Ridin' / Faith'

JAMIROQUAIéS redundancy letter is long overdue (it must have got lost in the post sometime around 1999) but it finally arrives, courtesy of Detroités Amp Fiddlerés new album, éAfro Struté, from which these two tracks are taken.

In truth the Jamiroquai comparisons are unfair as much of Jay Kayés sound came from Amp Fiddlerés input (he has also worked with the likes of George Clinton, Fishbone, Prince, the Brand New Heavies and Primal Scream amongst many others).

éRidiné is a glorious funk-disco workout, while éFaithé is a laid-back, bass-heavy tune that ités just a shame came out three decades too late for the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack.
